#china #project #america #india #myanmar As an important water body connecting Asia, Africa, Europe and Oceania, the Indian Ocean has always been a key area for international trade and strategic layout. Due to geographical limitations, China has not been able to establish obvious strategic advantages in the Indian Ocean region in the past. However, this situation changed significantly in 2003. That year, China and Myanmar signed a key lease agreement, according to which China will fully control the use rights of the Coco Islands in the next 30 years. This cooperation marks significant progress in China's strategic layout in the Indian Ocean region. However, China’s leasing of Myanmar’s Coco Islands has triggered geopolitical volatility. At that time, India viewed this behavior as a potential threat to its strategic interests. In response, India not only classified China as a member of the camp of “hostile countries“, but also joined forces with the United States to fight the Belt and Road Initiative in an attempt to reduce China's influence in the region. So, what is the importance of the Coco Islands to China? And why is India so determined to prevent China from developing the Coco Islands?
